This game completely redefines open world. It truly lets you do whatever you want right off the bat, allowing you to approach the game however you desire. There are no clear directions on what to do. You get to craft your own adventure, which is an incredible thing. The story is fantastic as well as music and graphic design. A must have video game.

Great game! My little brother can’t seem to out his switch down since getting this game. He says it gets challenging but that makes him want to play more.

From the opening scene to learning the mechanics and learning from mistakes to mastering the combat. This game is a phenomenal open world title and only gets better the more you play.
The music is catchy and emotional and fitting. This game is the reason I'm keeping my switch

I have never been a Zelda fan. I held off a while before finally giving in and purchasing BOTW. Wish I would've gotten it sooner! It's fun, the game looks great, and there's so much to do. I personally like running around to harvest items and cook food with the occasional fight. Definitely won't be disappointed in this purchase!

The graphics are absolutely stunning! This made a great gift for someone who loves action packed games. My boyfriend is not a huge Zelda fan, however with this game he was fully immersed into the Zelda-verse. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a great game with freeplay, with great graphics.

This game has clearly shown that Nintendo still has the potential to raise the bar. First party titles have long been the bread and butter of Nintendo and this game proves why they are still relevant in a gaming world that now pushes online shooters and 4K. It has been a great experience to return to the amazing Zelda experiences I knew in my past.

Quite simply, this is one the of the greatest games I've ever played. Having an open world Zelda game is something I never knew I wanted until I played this game. It blends the main story with the side quests so effortlessly that you sometimes forget which is which. I highly recommend this game if you're a fan of Zelda or video games in general.

This game is exactly what a launch title should be. This was my first Zelda game/Nintendo console in a long time and I have to say, that got everything right. I can't imagine anyone not liking this game, and if you have a switch, this should definitely be your first purchase.

Best game ever played for hours on end I can’t put it down oh my gosh so much fun. My mom gets mad at me all the time for not coming to dinner because I can’t stop playing this game. I hope she puts the light switch back on in the basement so I can turn the lights on.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s sheer freedom and sense of adventure is a remarkable achievement. Right from the start, the vast landscape of Hyrule is thrown completely open to you, and it constantly finds ways to pique your curiosity with mysterious landmarks, complex hidden puzzles, and enemy camps to raid for treasure and weapons.

I never really played the previous Zelda game so I knew nothing about the story line. But BoTW is a game changer, it introduces you to Legend of Zelda story and gives alot of information of the previous ones. This game is an absolute must have. If you are wondering if you should get it. DONT! Just buy it and thank me later

Zelda: Breath of the Wild harkens back to what made the original Zelda great - exploration, and a choose your own adventure design that allows you the freedom to explore the world how you want to.
Combat is fun, and the game design is really refreshing after Skyward Sword.
This game should absolutely be picked up along with your new Switch.

What a large world! I played this a little skeptical that this might just be a "kid's game", but boy could I ever have been wrong. A bit on the easy side at the beginning, but I suppose that is to get us indoctrinated to the controls. This is a fantastic, and very LARGE game...I'm not even close to finishing yet, but am really enjoying playing.

This game is mass, immersive, and completely jaw dropping let beautiful. The open world approach puts past attempts to shame and make it feel like a literal adventure not a guided tour. Experience what you want skipnwhat you don't and have fun doing it and discovering all the worlds hidden secrets. This game alone is worth getting the switch for.

Excellent game. It feels like one of the rare instances that an adventure game actually feels like an adventure. There is such an incredible lack of guidance and getting to the top of a tower and being able to craft your own little mini-objectives sets a great gameplay flow.

I bought this game along with my Switch as something to do on a long commute. So far I figure I have to be at least 100 hours in, and have yet to bother playing anything else. It has the same "ooh shiny" quality as Skyrim where you end up spending so much time just exploring around that you never have time to finish the story.

This game combines essence of a game like Skyrim with the charm of a Zelda game and in the process becomes something much more than either. One of the best, if not the best, open world games I've played. Similarly the best Zelda (at least 3D) game I've played. If you're a fan of either, perhaps even a fan of neither, this game just works so well.

I had a great experience purchasing this video game online. I love the option to park and pick up my purchase. It was very convenient and prompt. The video game Zelda is great. This was my second time using the pay online, park and pick up option. Will do it again.
